Re: Bigaro: A Purple Headed Monkey? Yeah, I've never seen dye used so precisely. Love the striping. Especially the clouds in front of the sun effect.

Re: Bigaro: A Purple Headed Monkey? This is really, really cool! The colors are so vibrant... but how did you mask the dye? Or are those parts sprayed? It's fantastic.

Re: Bigaro: A Purple Headed Monkey? JoeMan- I wasn't sure that part was going to come out. This guy was kind of an experiment. Like most of my attempts at customizing. I was very happy it turned out like it did.
Prometheum- Dye is actually pretty easy to mask. Anything you can do to keep the liquid from contacting the surface you want to mask works. For the rising sun effect, I used strips of electrical tape and then applied the dye super carefully with a circular sponge I cut. The hardest part is that, because the dye works best with heat, I had to keep dipping and applying the dye over and over. It takes forever for the vinyl to dye this way and you have to be very careful of stray drips, splashes, etc.

Re: Bigaro: A Purple Headed Monkey? Awesome, thanks for the tip. I always assumed the dye would 'spread' more, so it would get under a mask. Very cool.
